The Red Sword (1929)
This picture, which was made for a minimum expenditure of money, is a good example of artistic effects that can be obtained without bankrupting the producer. A tense melodrama of Cossack brutality prior to the Revolution, it might easily have become depressing but for the fine directorial touches of Bob Vignola. Carmel Myers, in a dual role, proves again she can act or look pretty as required. Meaty entertainment.
